Why is it called Finchley Road?

Where the name comes from
Named after Finchley Road, at whose corner with Canfield Gardens it stands. The road was built as a turnpike called Finchley New Road, an easier route north from London than the hilly way through Hampstead; Finchley probably means "Finch's clearing".
